    	Ok, this has been going on for far too long and we're trying to
    solve it in a different way, this time through servers.
    	Remember a while back both me and Chris Delaney told you folks (or
    asked rather) about the weird happenes on RiverMOO where after upgrading
    to p4 (and p5), the server's CPU usage increased by 25%....and...the
    place became very laggy, very slow.  There are no tasks running that
    weren't there before we upgraded.  There aren't any more processes
    running on the server than there was before we upgraded, yet, things
    really dragged after the upgrade...  So, now we're trying to revert back
    to the old p2 server....but....guess what.....Pavel gave us yet another
    surprise....

    Mon May 20 21:48:10 MDT 1996: RESTARTED
    May 20 21:48:10: STARTING: Version 1.8.0p2 of the LambdaMOO server
    May 20 21:48:10:           (Using BSD/TCP protocol)
    May 20 21:48:10:           (Task timeouts measured in server CPU seconds.)
    May 20 21:48:10: LOADING: core.db
    May 20 21:48:10: *** READ_DB_FILE: Unknown DB version number: 4
    May 20 21:48:10: *** DB_LOAD: Cannot load database!

    	So...now we can't even revert back to our old server.  Um, does
    anyone know HOW this can be achived, IF there's a way to do this?
    Anyone?  Pavel?  Help?
